Wiley X Lens Coating

HMC Coatings

Wiley X has chosen to apply this quality coating as standard on all prescription lenses, which they supply. HMC is short for HARD MULTI COATING, and this is a vital coating that all polycarbonate lenses should be treated as it protects the lens and prolongs its lifetime.

The Glacier treatment features a unique anti-reflective coating with two additional layers compared to the HMC. It is a coating that keeps lenses clean and enhances lens durability. It eliminates hazy, fuzzy vision, ghost images and halos resulting from extremely bright light.

Glacier Plus improves the optical performance, cosmetic appearance and gives no unwanted reflections in the lens.

Glacier Plus is one of the best RX lens coatings available on the market today.

Shamir Glacier Plus™ contains everything, which is offered in HMC and Glacier, but Glacier Plus is an improved and further developed version of the standard Glacier treatment. Glacier Plus is an extremely hard, scratch-resistant coating that protects your lenses from damage during day-to-day use.

The Glacier Plus coating is suitable for all types of prescription lenses sold by Wiley X.

Mirror Coating

Wiley X Europe offers several different mirror coatings for sunglasses both with and without prescription lenses. A mirror coating is mainly for looks, it only has a slight visual effect, when you are using the glasses. It is very different from individual to individual what is preferred.

Soft Mirror is offered in 4 different colours, and is only available with prescription eyewear. Please note that mirror coatings are not available on transition lenses.

Transition Options

There is a small amount of residual colour (5% grey) in the lens, when it clears up and worn indoors. Affected by all visible light, it will change through the car’s windshield as well. The lens will go extra dark when worn outside.

Transition SOLFX

Available in 4 different colours (see illustration below). The purple colour is developed especially to golfers, because it enhances the green grass. The lens is naturally 30% coloured and darkens as it is exposed to UV light.
